arXiv:2605.22122v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Collaborative perception (CP) enables connected and autonomous vehicles to share sensor data and jointly reason about their environment. To defend against adversaries that fabricate or manipulate shared data, existing systems employ cross-vehicle inconsistency detection and trust estimation, penalizing vehicles whose observations conflict with the majority. In this work, we show that these defenses themselves introduce a new attack surface. We
Editorial Analysis
Automotive and transport enterprises relying on V2X data sharing must account for trust-layer attacks that can degrade safety-critical perception decisions.
